Watch Group Planning Exercise (GPE) sample Videos here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCclP5qHE-ulc664h_FJ8hIg This Video will show the SSB Aspirants how to approach Group Planning Exercise (GPE) practically and tips for doing perming better at SSB GPE. The Group Planning Exercise (GPE) or Military Planning Exercise (MPE) is the one of most important and yet another interesting task after the PGT . You might have observed that, none of the cinemas and movies made with Army in background goes unaddressed without GPE shown in it. To simply put it, your personality in action, both in your mind and ground, can be seen through GPE and PGT alone. So, one can plainly imagine the potential of both these tasks to unmask a personality. Rests of all tasks in the Group Testing Technique are just a manifestation of these two tasks and are confirmatory in nature. Conduct of GPE: The group is seated in a semi-circle fashion around a sand model. The GTO first briefs the group about the layout and structure of the model. He reads the narrative and simultaneously explains it with respect to the model. He then hands over a copy of the printed narrative to each one in the group and 7 -10 min of time is allotted with a view to acquaint themselves with various details and situations given therein. After the expiry of the stipulated time, the GTO esquires whether all the members of the group have understood the model clearly. Once the GTO is satisfied that none of them has any difficulty, he would ask to pass back the narrative and the members are given a sheet of paper each. Each one of you is required to write an individual plan in 10 min of time. Once the time is over, again a time of 2 min is given to revise through the plan, which each individual has written. After that, the sheet is collected back and the group is given 15 min of time as an opportunity to collectively discuss over the exercise and arrive at a common conclusion. The language of discussion would be preferably English, but Hindi is also acceptable, in case one gets stuck. But, the person should revert back to English as soon as possible. No third language can be used. The GTO takes his seat and observes the progress of the discussion. Once the discussion is over, the group has to appoint a volunteer or a spokesman, who would explain the entire group plan to the GTO. We have completed with all the requirements of GPE theoretically. But, before we move on to get into details practically, let’s see the two basics that have to be kept in mind: • Again here, pay careful and absolute attention to the briefing given by the GTO about the task. Though later, you will be given the narrative to read and understand, but the very first impression of the task and the audio-visual approach (explanation + demonstration on the sand model using a pointer by the GTO) will offer you a basking edge in the finding solutions. • Make a mental note of the key factors and facilities in the model. Also, try to register the sequence of action in your mind. Clarify genuine doubts, if any. Please use a pinch of common sense to avoid asking silly and baseless doubts, out of excitement. You might unnecessarily invite a negative impression in the mind of the testing officer.
